Dental device gets the measure of sensitive teeth
An innovative device that painlessly detects and measures tooth sensitivity is being commercially developed by a University of Leeds company. D-Sense Ltd, launched this week, backed by an initial £250,000 equity investment by the White Rose Technology Seedcorn Fund (WRTSF). The device is based on a diagnostic technique patented by Professor... view more... (2002-03-01)
Fresh zing to food and drink with the minty flavour
It`s 35 times fresher than mint yet tastes of absolutely nothing GET ready to chill out with the world`s coolest drinks. The secret?
